Re: [TCML] Smoke Detector Issues / Faraday cage



well i did write, that off-mode a microwave is not as you described at
all. try and imagine yourself as an electron or a wave or a particle
or an induced magnetic or electric field or otherwise, finding
yourself at the ceramic interface of a magnetron at which on the other
end of that divide is the electric grid itself. under the right
circumstances this ceramic bridge will fail any notion of "shielding"
that a faraday cage would otherwise provide under similar
circumstances. cut a magnetron in half some time (under a vented hood,
nasty dust) and you'll see what i am talking about.
